No, the onus is on people wishing to change the status quo. You can help, I'm not doing all this alone, especially since within two minutes I was able to ref the first one. Alternately, having done so, I can just walk away now, but I won't. here's a link showing the writer of the first listing as credited in the second listing. http://www.answers.com/topic/for-the-birds-rock-album-1. Enjoy, and get to work. finally, if you do scurry off now, I'll have good foundation for ignoring and auto-reverting any future edits of yours, since your talk page request that we work this out wasn't made in good faith.

dystonia
can anybody actually confirm this assertion that schiele had dystonia? i was able to find one article from a medical journal which mentioned the painter's being afflicted, but only in passing and with no corroborating evidence. all the other hits i got doing a simple google search were copied off wiki. if schiele did have dystonia, this is relatively new knowledge, as none of the well-known monographs from the 1980s and 1990s mention this condition. it represents a fairly new take on the painter if he actually had to move his body in that spasmolytic manner; given the unprecedented nature of this assertion it would be good to have citations/references of some kind ---- — Preceding unsigned comment added by User: Dionysian_kat (talk • contribs)
- There is no mention whatsoever of dystonia in the major biographies of Schiele: Frank Whitford, Alessandra Comini, Jane Kallir. Mick gold 09:19, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
Colbert Report
On a recent episode of the Colbert Report featuring Andrew Keen, Keen claimed "even the Nazis didn't put people out of work", to which Colbert responded with "what about Egon Schiele"?
Given that Schiele died in 1918, does anybody know what Colbert could have been talking about? Given the pictures I've seen here, I would expect Schiele's art to have been classified as Entartete Kunst, so he would have been repressed were he still alive. But they can't very well put him out of work if he'd been dead for 25 years! --Saforrest 05:07, 29 August 2007 (UTC)
The Cobert Report is parody or fake news and doesn't have to make sense, it only has to make money. Probably the writers meant Mucha. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.179.30.13 (talk) 07:38, 2 March 2008 (UTC)
i think its a referring to how andrew keen is an elitist and he says there is nothing wrong with that. some classify nazis as elitists. Egon was locked up for offensive paintings(i think other charges as well) so he was pretty much out of work. after he did his time, egon was in the austrian millitary which were allies to nazi germany. what i get out of it is that under authoritarian control, egon could no longer paint painting which were found offensive by some. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.213.49.51 (talk) 20:54, 3 October 2008 (UTC)
Trivia section
Regarding the "Tributes" section, we need some valid third-party sources attesting to the significance of these "tributes" per WP:V. If none can be found the section will need to be removed.--John (talk) 19:40, 4 January 2009 (UTC)
- three months with a tag for factual, non-BLP violating material isnt' great, but it's hardly cause for removal. On their face, these tributes generally seem to be modern artists attributing their work to having been influenced by his work. None of it's negative. Start finding sources.

For the first one, http://www.amazon.com/Music-Egon-Schiele-Rachels/dp/B0000037O3 substantiates that it exists.
here's a critical review, so I think that will substantiate the first adequately? http://www.westword.com/1996-04-04/music/playlist/ ThuranX (talk) 19:48, 4 January 2009 (UTC)
